Not surprisingly half-a-dozen make the journey across the Irish Sea for this lucrative prize. Aleezdancer’s two defeats have come on fast going, the latest in the Group 2 July Stakes at Newmarket. Bosh has improved with each run and has a bit in hand at Newbury while Ever Given was impressive in a tough Goodwood nursery on Friday. SACRED BRIDGE heads the home challenge and can retain his unbeaten record. A debut winner over subsequent Group 3 winner Agartha over the track and trip, he had the pace to land a Listed contest over the minimum at Tipperary and will take some beating. The latter’s stable is well represented and the progressive Hadman only weakened inside the closing stages over an extended 6f in a Curragh Group 3 last time so looks an obvious threat. Johnny Murtagh is in good form and is well represented with Hapipi Go Lucky the choice of Ben Coen while Tut Tut’s close second to Velocidad at Fairyhouse in May has worked out very well. Sunset Shiraz and Mount Fairweather were engaged in the 2.15 at Galway yesterday.
